Delia, Collin and Serena sat down to dinner.
"Pasta tonight" Serena said proud that she made dinner.
"Thank you Serena" Delia said.
"So how was your day?" Serena asked. Delia looked from her plate to Collin back to Serena.
"So, so" Delia said. "What about your first day?" she asked.
"Surprisingly it went really well. I mean I do have the worst history teacher in the world but other than that things were smooth" she said. Delia smiled knowing that at least her sister had a good day.
"This is good Serena" Collin said. "Thanks again for cooking tonight I don't know if I could have had another night of take out."
"Same here" she said. "That's why I made it." Delia fiddled with her food not to hungry.
"Delia please eat" Serena said.
"Sorry I think I am going to go up to my room I'm just not that hungry" she said.
"Ok" Serena said.
Delia headed upstairs. She opened up her journal and began to write.
Dear Journal,
Well all I can say is what a day. School stinks, Collin hates me, I think I offended Serena with her cooking and my neck hurts. I think I got some whip lash from the jump I took today. It was so cool. I felt like I was flying and for those 4 seconds I was in the air I felt free of my power. I felt like a normal kid. I know I am supposed to be a gift but I really don't feel like one. I guess I can be a burden sometimes. Collin would probably agree. Don't get me wrong I love Serena and Collin, they're the best. I just think they have lives. They have lives without me being around. Stanton has to follow me around almost everywhere. In fact I shouldn't even be up here writing to you alone. I guess with all that's happened today we just forgot. Stuff has been crazy around here lately. I talked to Jimena the other day and she gave me some good advice. "Reach for the moon and if you miss, you'll land with the stars" that's what she said. It's just a cute saying I thought I would write it down. I-
Delia stopped writing and heard a noise from the other room.
"Serena?" she called. "Collin? Are you there?" she walked into the other room. "Hello?" she called. Her heart started pounding. She knew Serena and Collin were downstairs and that she wasn't the only one upstairs. Her breathing got heavy. She turned around to see if anyone was there but didn't find anything.
"Ok Delia your just imagining just go back into your room and write" she told herself.
"Well well." Delia heard a voice from behind her and whipped around to see Cassandra standing in the hallway.
"Don't be nervous" she said. "I just want something of yours that is supposed to belong to me" Cassandra said twisting her hair. Delia was about to let out a scream but someone behind her covered her mouth before something came out.
"I wouldn't scream if I were you" Tymmie whispered in her ear.
"You see we don't wanna kill you" he said. "We just want you to get to know us a little more and then" he stopped. She knew what he was going to say. They were going to turn her to the Atrox.
Downstairs
Collin looked up at Serena.
"You think Delia hates me?" he asked.
"A little" Serena teased. Collin gave her the look.
"She'll get over it Collin she just is I don't know scared I guess. I know whenever you get mad at me I feel I could just-"
"Serena" Collin interrupted her. "Your amulet." Serena looked down at her necklace it was changing colors and could feel it burn just a little. She looked at Collin with a worried expression on her face.
"Delia!" she screamed. Collin and Serena ran to the staircase and saw Delia in Tymmie's grip.
"Let her go" Serena said.
"I don't think so" Cassandra said. Serena was about to come up the stairs but Tymmie pulled out a knife.
"Come any closer and I will" he said putting the knife to Delia's throat his grip on her tightened.
"Why are you doing this?" Serena cried. "She didn't do anything!" Collin tried to creep his was up the stairs but Tymmie put the knife closer to Delia's throat.
"Come on now" Collin said. "Let her go."
"Let's go Cassandra" Tymmie said. She took his hand. Delia looked down at her siblings and a tear fell from her cheek. "Bye" she mouthed and they shadowed out.
